We had our first humpback whale sighting today about 16 nm from St. Andrews! Typically we don’t see humpbacks regularly in our area until mid-August but last year they showed up in early July and stayed. We will have to keep our fingers crossed.
The humpback we saw today wasn’t in the “mood” to show us “his” flukes. This is a picture of his dorsal fin, and you can see why they are called humpbacks, their dorsal fin is located on a small hump. We also saw 2 finbacks today and a minke whale.
